Hey Girlies! So I had a really good question today! What in the WORLD is Roundup? Hahah. You're right - all these trainings can get confusing!! I totally understand! Here's the rundown in heirarchial order:
Trainings are monthly and small(er). They are generally held by someone higher up (at least a designer but usually a 1 diamond or up) and they should be considered non-negotiable. Put them on your calendar and don't schedule ANYTHING else, NOT even shows! The next Knoxville training is May 16.
Roundup is a step up from training. They are usually twice a year and take the place of that month's training. Usually there is a theme and a big-name speaker from within Premier. Usually everyone in the area is invited (your training and other local trainings). And it's a Saturday morning for around 5 hours or something. This one costs about $25 (for some, not all). This year's Knoxville Roundup is from 9a-1p on April 16. Chris, did you get more information at your last training? That's all I have. And B, I'm ASSUMING you have Roundup this month too. Do you know? If you wanted, you could go to Nashville Roundup. Dave and Vickie would LOVE that! I cannot attend any this month becuase I have a bridal shower in Indiana for my [former] roommate. :(
Regional Rally is the next big thing. It's once a year in January and it is all of the states in an area. There are 7 regional rallies nation wide and you attend the closest one to you. Ours is in Atlanta and it costs around $120. It's a Friday afternoon thru a Saturday afternoon.
National Rally is the BIG ONE. It's once a year in July at the Dallas Fort Worth convention center. You DO NOT want to miss this! It was SOOO amazing last year!! Registration for this year's national rally opens April 11!!! Mark your calendars! The cost is $160 for jewelers and $135 for spouses. You can get all the info you need for this on the Premier Designs website under Rally/Events. Last year we all met with Dave & Vickie and the rest of the gang in Nashville and then carpooled from there. Brian and I are both going to Rally this year!! :)
ALL trainings are super important and should be attended if at all possible!!
Well I didn't even find out about the Nashville Roundup until about 2 weeks ago, so I'm not going to the Nashville meeting.
ReplyDeleteI will be going to the Knoxville Roundup on the same day, but I have a wedding to go to in Sevierville that afternoon, so I won't be able to stay for the whole thing. The cost for the Knoxville Roundup is $10 from 9 - 1.
I did not make it to the regional rally in January this year, but I plan to be there next year.
I won't be going to the National rally this year, because my family vacation is during that month, but I plan on going next year.
